I want to post under a certain page
-
I have multiple pages on my blog. When I click on one of the pages I want to be able to see all the posts that I have categorized. Kind of like the home screen where the latest blogs show up. I want readers to be able to click on the page and see all the posts I have written under that topic/page.
I have the categories made, but when I click on the page in the side bar it is only showing the description of that page that I wrote.The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

That’s no problem – I have the same thing set up on my website!
What you would want to do is go into “Menus” underneath “Personalize” in your “My Site” sidebar. Add a new menu item, but instead of setting it to a Page, set it to a Category and pick the category you want. Then, when visitors click that menu item, it’ll take them to a page that curates every post flagged with that category onto that same page.
You can see it in action under the “Questions” sub-menu on my site here: https://acmetoaster.wordpress.com/category/food/
And see a step-by-step of the process with screenshots to show you how to set it up on your own site here: https://en.support.wordpress.com/category-pages/

Thank you so so so much.
This was so helpful!
Sometimes the difference in pages vs menus vs categories is confusing. If a post remains uncategorized does it just go to the main home page? -
Yep! By default, the main home page shows ALL posts, regardless of what category they’re in, but you could also create a menu that just points towards uncategorized posts specifically. I’m not 100% certain, but I’m pretty sure you can also change the home page so that it does just show the uncategorized posts instead of all of them, if that’s how you want to do it.
